Hey everyone,

I’ve been using Figma Slides for presentations, but whenever I export them as PDFs, the file size is pretty large. I’m looking for the best way to export a smaller, more compressed PDF without sacrificing too much quality.

Does anyone have any tips or workflows for this? Do you use any specific export settings, plugins, or third-party tools to compress the file afterward?

Would love to hear how you all handle this! Thanks in advance.

In Figma actual you can use a plug-in called tinyimage but unfortunately that doesn't work in slides for now.

There seems to be reduced plug-in availability for Slides. Really hoping they improve this soon, I downloaded a 10 page presentation with half a dozen small images and it's 400 meg I downloaded the PowerPoint variant and that was 480! And it was broken beyond use. 

I love the convenience of having Figma functionality whilst creating slides, but the export size makes it unusable. Which I discovered at the end of a very long day, a lot of work and a missed deadline. 

I've been a Figma evangelist from the beginning, but I'm starting to feel the pain in using it. The Adobefication is sad.
